Il Gobbo dei Carracci 1736

"Il Gobbo dei Carracci" is a 1736 pen and ink drawing by the British artist Arthur Pond, depicting a hunchback artist painting. The work is characterized by its expressive linework, creating a humorous and somewhat exaggerated representation of the artist. Pond's work was well known in his day, and this piece exemplifies his skill as a draftsman and his interest in capturing the personalities of his subjects. The work is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
